Wax Paper Patterns

I saw Vera’s card and felt inspired to try Wax Paper Resist. I have done wax paper resist, but it’s been a few years, so I checked out the very helpful tutorial on SplitCoastStampers, as per Vera’s suggestion.

So I did the whole two sheets of Glossy card stock, facing inward & sandwiched the crumpled & reflattened wax paper inbetween the two, ironed it, & then went to brayer on some colour.

I decided to do more than one colour, so I also masked circles:

Most of the time, I never have anything mocked up of what I want the final card to look like. It just sorta’ comes together & I often change my stream of thought 4 or 5 times. I like to think of it as creatively musing, rather than hopelessly disorganized.

I cropped it into a circle card (unplanned, but hopelessly hooked on Kristina Werners’s Cards) & here ya be:

I used Sage Shadow, Mellow Moss, Certainly Celery, & Old Olive Inks, Sage Shadow C/Stock, The Stamp Set was ‘Pensées Amicales’, & used some dimensionals & gross grain ribbon.
